Gingerbread Man’s First Christmas

Gingerbread Man’s First Christmas

By Mikell Reed

Age 6

Once Upon a Time there was a gingerbread house. A little gingerbread man lived there.

He was lonely in his house. There weren’t even any snowmen or reindeer.

So he ran away but he could not get out of the house cause the door was too high. So he went in his house and pulled out a chair and ladder just in case the chair won’t be high enough. The ladder and the chair were candy too.

When he got out of the house he went down the sidewalk. Three dogs chased him and barked, “Just stop! I want to eat you! so he pulled out his rope made out of candy beads and frosting to stick them together and then he ran to a tree and got up with his candy rope. He was safe. He got bored so he used his candy ladder so he would be safer than lassoing something from down below.

It was night time. It was snowing. He thought the snow was warm to him so he went to sleep there with his candy teddy bear made out of green beads and gingerbread for the body, the 2 green beads for the eyes.

The next morning he woke up and ran. While he was running a hawk and an eagle and a bird said “Get up on a tree so I can eat you!”

Then he saw a hole in the street so he used his candy ladder to get down so the birds won’t get him

Then he climbed back up then it was night time. He went to sleep in the snow again with his gingerbread teddy bear. The next morning, the gingerbread man got sad because he missed his home so he ran back home.

He didn’t make it in time so he had to wait because it was night time. And then he got sad.

And the next morning he got home in time and he used his candy chair and ladder to get back up and then when he got back to his gingerbread house there were 3 little snowmen and Santa and Rudolph and 3 little friendly reindeer.He went to say Hello to them and Santa told the little gingerbread man I have given you Rudolph and 3 friendly reindeer and these 3 snowmen because you were lonely. It’s your Christmas presents! The gingerbread man said I didn’t know it was Christmas! Thank you for the presents! Then they were all a family.
